[BC] BE Sold

[Steve]

Neumann..Telefunken...splitting hairs me thinks.

I did have a U-47. I bought it for $200 bucks in 1971. I sold it 2 years ago on Ebay for $4,660! It was a Neumann from the 60's AND it was the Nuvistor retrofit no less. The guy who bought it took it back to the original tube version.

Do you know of Klaus Heyne? He rebuilt my U-87. You should hear it now. Cost $1,600 but it was WELL worth it.
I won't argue with you on the sound of a U-47 but this 87 I have is pretty darn close.
